Call Me Chihiro

Chihiro (Kasumi Arimura) used to work as a prostitute. She happened to stop by a seaside town and have a bento meal there, which she loved so much that she decided to settle down in the seaside town and work at the bento shop. She now greets customers with a smile at the bento shop and makes small talk with them. She doesn't even hide her past. She talks with customers about various problems and, through their conversations, they are comforted by her. Chihiro herself suffers from loneliness, which started with her family when she was little. By meeting her customers, she also faces, and slowly overcomes, her loneliness.
